Chapter 30: Mechanical City, History of the Star Source Continent

Wedge: It's not just war that brings destruction, so does peace

The two of them in the ruins were completely unaware of the outside world, and Chisheng Hitomi swept quickly in the direction where Zirou was dodging, she should be nearby, this ruins were full of dangers, and she took her dagger again. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info is much worse than her if she doesn't use her body, but his reaction is almost completely close to instinctive reaction, which has nothing to do with his body, so he is a little worried. Sure enough, after chasing for a distance, he saw a collapsed body, with a large pit in the middle, obviously another mechanical spirit beast, and the functions of this one may be better preserved. There wasn't a single footprint around, it seemed that it had been out for a while, and the footprints had been buried by the wind and sand. "I'm in trouble now", Chisheng Hitomi frowned deeply, revealing a thoughtful look, in such a desert, no matter what kind of mark is left, it will disappear into the dust after a long time. If you encounter a mechanical spirit beast, you will definitely take it away from your companions, especially with Zirou's character, you will definitely do this, that is to say, you will chase straight over, and the chance is greater than choosing a random direction. Chisheng Hitomi quickly took out the map and looked at it, because of the previous battle, now he has left the range of the map, and he just killed the mechanical spirit beast and did not get the spirit value, which means that this map is basically useless. After putting away the map, chase straight ahead. After a while, I could faintly see a slight depression in the ground, although it was buried by the wind and sand, but there was still a little depression and other places of disharmony. Sure that his judgment was correct, Hitomi Akatsumi chased forward as quickly as possible.

Another period of time passed, and finally a tall figure was faintly seen on the distant wind-blown horizon. As the distance narrowed, the figure gradually became clearer. It also has no head, and Chisheng Hitomi just saw its back, and the entire back was lined with ravines, which looked like they were all made of rocks, and there was fine sand flowing back and forth like water between the ravines. Roar! The empty roar came, this voice was the sound I heard before, Chisheng Pupil squinted slightly, this guy in front of him should be a spirit beast, it seems that there are not only mechanical spirit beasts in this ruins. Chisheng Pupil quickly came to its back, the spiritual power in his abdomen surged, and a trace of Gang strength gathered between his fists, and then he jumped five steps and punched down his back, and Gang Jin raged in the rocks, leaving a deep hole. Roar...... With a long roar, it immediately threw a heavy punch with its backhand, and Chisheng Hitomi immediately withdrew after punching. As soon as he landed, his huge body rushed towards him with a Tarzan top. Chisheng Hitomi hurriedly dodged, although he ran out of the range of his body, he was still hit by the rock arm, and he used his spiritual power with all his strength, his fists were clenched, and wisps of milky white strength jumped between his fists, and then a lunge threw a punch towards the boulder that fell down. A layer of sand waves were set off in the desert, and countless fine grains of sand were thrown dozens of meters into the air by this impact, and a long oval-shaped boulder flew up with them. Half of the huge body of the rock spirit beast was thrown into the sand, only below the wrist was missing, and where its severed hand was, a sandman spat out grains of sand. The spirit beast beside him squirmed for a while, and Chisheng Hitomi hurriedly pulled out half of the leg buried in the sand, and then retreated sharply to open the distance. At the same time, the severed hand of the rock in the sky also fell, and Zirou's figure flashed, robbing the half-severed hand.

Hitomi Chisheng pulled away, expecting it to attack again, but after a while of squirming, this guy disappeared into the yellow sand and disappeared. At this time, Zi Rou had already thrown the half of her hand on the ground, and her petite figure held a huge rock with an inexplicable sense of joy, and Chi Sheng Hitomi was also a little surprised, I thought that Zi Rou was an agile spirit, but I didn't expect her strength to be good. "What are you looking at", Zirou asked suspiciously, Chisheng Hitomi kept staring at her, making her a little uncomfortable, her red cheeks flew a purple patch, she hadn't been stared at like this. "Eh, I'm a little surprised that you can hold this arm," Chisheng Hitomi touched his nose and said slightly embarrassed. "I am a fourth-order spirit master", Zi Rou's cold voice sounded, and Chisheng Hitomi remembered that this arm was only ten thousand catties at most, if it was placed on the ground like this, he would not be able to pick it up without a strong point, but it should not be too easy for the spirit person from the air. "That's right, dagger", Chisheng Hitomi handed the dagger to Zi Rou, "...... that mechanical spirit beast", Zi Rou said, with an inquiring look in her eyes, and reached out to Chi Sheng Hitomi to take the dagger in her hand. "Solved", Hitomi Chisheng said lightly, "What? You said you killed it?", Zirou was a little surprised, her slender hand was grasping the handle of the dagger, and her five fingers were on the rough palm of Hitomi Chisheng's hand and remained motionless. "Well, yes", Chisheng Hitomi replied, the delicate feeling in the palm of her hand came, her fingers were a little cold, Zirou also reacted, she couldn't be surprised, she hurriedly picked up the dagger and turned around, "Is there any spiritual value to kill it", Zirou hurriedly changed the topic. "Why are they all the same weapons, why don't girls' hands have calluses", he muttered to himself, "What's wrong", Zirou saw that he didn't answer, gently twisted the jade neck and asked, "Ah, it's nothing, there is no spiritual value", Chisheng Hitomi asked back to his senses. "That's right, map," Zirou jumped onto the rock in front of her. "Map?", Hitomi Chisheng looked at her suspiciously. I saw her jump on the rock, look left and right, and then jump in the direction of her finger, and then she took out a scroll from the crack in the rock, which was the one they had seen on the mountain before.

Zirou took the map back to him, and when she spread out the scroll, only a building was drawn in the middle of the entire map, and everything else was blank, and even their location was not displayed. "I'll see if I can teleport to this position in the middle", Zirou took out the identity card and put it on the map in the style of the central building, the moment the identity card came into contact with the map, the golden writing part of the entire scroll fell off the scroll, and then drilled into the shaft of both hands like a bug, and the identity card fell on the sand, and at the same time, the round shaft in both hands also began to disappear, and finally left two strangely shaped signs. Zirou picked up the identity tag on the ground, and the two of them each held a sign and looked at it. In Chisheng's hand, this is a strange sign woven by dark black lines, first of all, a V-shape, the two lines of the V-shaped upward are bent outward into a semicircle, which looks like two D-shapes on the left and right and on both sides, and at the same time, the middle of the V-shaped opening is a vulture, and the two strokes under the vultures just fall in the middle of the D character on the left and right sides, and the horizontal side of the vultures is just flush with both sides of the V but there is no contact, and the vultures hold a flower on it, a total of four petals. The brand in Zirou's hand is much simpler, missing the left and right two D's, as well as the flowers on the vultures. "What does it look like", Hitomi Chisheng said, "Huh?", Zirou twisted her eyebrows slightly, "What's wrong", Hitomi Chisheng asked. Zirou didn't speak, she took the brand in Chishengtong's hand, the two cards were spread out in her hand, she concentrated slightly, as if she was perceiving something, and then began to turn around slowly. The two of them stood side by side, pausing slightly as she turned her back to Akaibu, then turned back, frowning, and turned back again. "There seems to be something in this direction, the temperature of the two signs has changed a little", Zi Rou said soothingly and affectionately, her eyes drifted into the distance, as if she wanted to see something clearly, but she couldn't see anything except the wind and sand in the sky. "Is the temperature changing, in this case, let's go and see, if there is no guide in this desert, it is easy to get lost, and now is the right time. And it's getting dark, just now the rock spirit beast can dive into the sand, and it can come out at any time, it's too dangerous to stay in this place at night, I hope there can be a place to rest", Chisheng Hitomi said after thinking about it. Zirou nodded slightly, put away the two symbols, and the two flew away in the direction of the sense.

And at this time, the county town, "Have you ever seen those two signs", the county lord frowned, and asked with a somewhat solemn face. Everyone in the hall shook their heads, although this mechanical ruin was controlled by Wuxi County, it had only been opened three times in total, and their understanding of the ruins was also very little, which was why everyone sitting here was the head of a clan, and there were many things in the clan but they were still sitting here. This ruin is too important to Wuxi County, and it has not dared to open it before, so this opportunity to learn about the ruins will naturally not be missed. "Ao Bing, just now that sign was tepicted down, and then take my trading bracelet to the exchange to inquire", the county lord ordered, and then took off his bracelet, a total of eight gems lit up on it, level eight traders can query some special information, and it is from the exchange's general database, but some special information also needs higher permissions to query. The two of them were running in the desert, the sky was getting darker and darker, and there was still wind and sand in front of them, and small storms were blowing by. The two stopped, Zirou took out two signs and spread them out in his hands, "How is it", Chisheng Hitomi asked, during this period, he also tried to sense it himself, but the sign in his hand was always a temperature, maybe it was the relationship of body temperature, the brand quickly became hot in his hand, no matter which direction the temperature was the same. "It shouldn't be far away", Zirou turned around and walked two steps, then turned back and said: "The temperature gap between the front and back is getting bigger and bigger, it should be just in front", the two put away the sign and ran wildly.

It was already dark, and in the remaining afterglow, it was finally clear where the two signs were sensing. In front of me is a city, and the tall gate is even higher than the Brahma City, because of the light, it is impossible to see whether there is a city name on the gate. After countless years of erosion, the surface of the city wall has fallen off, it looks like it is made of sand, with a gust of wind blowing, the city wall still slides from time to time wisps of sand, like flowing water, but for this magnificent city, such a sand flow has lasted for countless years, but it still stands. The two walked into the city together, saying that in the city, except for the surrounding walls, the ground was still sandy, and the sand in the city was much softer to step on, and every step of the way, the feet would be submerged in the sand. It was already completely dark, and Chisheng Hitomi took out two blue crystals, and the two of them walked in the city one after the other, the light of the crystals was the kind of divergent light, so they couldn't shine far, and they didn't know the environment in the city, and they didn't know if there were houses, so the two stopped after walking through the thick city wall. "Zirou, take out those two signs and see if there is any special induction, the sand here is too soft, I always feel that something is wrong", Chisheng Hitomi squatted down and picked up some sand grains and rubbed them gently, and the sand grains turned into powder and slipped between his fingers. The soft feeling of the sand he had only experienced a few days ago, in a black forest, the soil was also soft, and finally worms came out of the ground. Now the sand in this city is obviously much softer than the outside, if it is a city that has been abandoned for a few years, it is understandable, after all, these sand are the dust and sand particles blown up by the storm, and it is understandable to be softer, but this is the sand that has been precipitated for hundreds of billions of years or even longer, and it should not be much different from the surface. Zirou took out two signs, the two dark signs emitted a faint white light at the moment, both of them put away the crystals, Zirou walked along the city wall on the right for a distance, Chisheng Hitomi also followed, her fingers crossed the rough wall, and the light of the sign in Zirou's hand became bigger and darker. Then the two of them returned and walked to the left, and finally determined that only the light was brightest in front of the city gate. Chisheng Hitomi thought quietly, if he stayed in place, there was no cover around, if something really came out, either the two of them were trapped in the city, or they were forced to leave the city; "Let's go and see" , Zi Rou said in a cold voice, Chisheng Tong smiled slightly, he actually planned to go over and take a look, the way of cultivation lies in moving forward bravely, and he must always maintain a brave heart, if he doesn't even know what is in front of him, he will cringe away, and what will he face when the huge difficulties are in front of him in the future, especially the mystery of his life experience, whether it is the black smoke or the secret of the bronze eyes, these are like a huge mystery hovering in his heart, and this mystery must have a manipulator behind the scenes, so he needs to move forward bravely and be fearless。 However, he was very curious about Zirou's thoughts, "Oh? why", he asked with interest, holding the back of his head with both hands, leaning against the city wall and waiting for Zirou's answer, just at the moment when the back of his hand was about to touch the city wall, the whole head and hands actually fell into the air, specifically the place where his head was going to lean on was a hole. "Because ......", Zi Rou was about to speak when she was interrupted, "Wait", Chisheng Hitomi took out the blue crystal, and sure enough, there was a hole in the head he was leaning on just now, he held the crystal high and looked at it, where the blue light reached, there was a hole every other distance, and the entire thick city wall seemed to be hollowed out by insects. "This is", Zirou was also a little surprised. "It looks like a nest of something, and it's huge, and depending on the size and height of the cave, the things that inhabit it are either tall or flying," Hitomi Akayu analyzed. "Let's go, since you have decided to go inside, let's get out of here while there is no encounter now", after speaking, the two of them took the crystal and walked in the direction of the sign.

Not long after the two of them left, white worms emerged from the caves on the city wall, they had no eyes, their bodies were knotty, and their milky white skin looked a little disgusting. Their long bodies reach into the sand and eventually spit out a clear liquid that automatically coalesces into a ball of sand, which then retracts into the hole. After a while, it came out again, and the same sand ball retracted into the hole. The two walked side by side, the sign in their hands was still glowing, and the road was flat during the period, perhaps because of the light, and there were no buildings around. After a while, both stopped. Because the induction of the sign ends here, and then forward or backward, the sign will obviously darken a lot, but in front of you except for the yellow sand under your feet is endless darkness. The two were confused, a burst of creaking sounded in the dark, the two looked around back to back, the creaking sound became more and more dense, and more and more consistent, this frequency of screaming just coincided with the beating frequency of their hearts, the two only felt that their hearts were beating faster and faster, and then gradually lost consciousness. Then, the yellow sand under his feet began to rhythm, as if something was stirring inside, and the originally uneven and ravine-filled sand began to rotate clockwise, forming a whirlpool centered on the two Hitomi Akatsumi. As the rotation continued, the center of the vortex began to sink, and the two unconscious people sank into the yellow sand with countless sunken grains of sand. In the end, the sand in the entire city turned back counterclockwise, and everything was exactly the same as before, except for the two of them, who disappeared without a trace. At the same time, both the observation air mass in the Brahma City Square and the air mass in the county government lost the picture of the two of them at the same time. In the county government, "Ao Bing, go check the opening status of the hunting ground", the county lord instructed, although there is no picture, but as long as the hunting ground is still open, it proves that there are still living people with identity cards inside.

The unconscious two were moved to a hall, which was ornate compared to the dilapidated city before, and it should be said that it was more technological, completely different from the architectural style of Brahma City. Surrounded by dark blue transparent material, the hall looked like two semi-circular lids still on top of each other, but they didn't close, and there was a ring of walls with countless recessed marking slots on these walls, like some special character, and there was no entrance or exit at all. At this time, two beams of light fell on the two of them from the sky, and the two of them were lifted into the air by the light, maintaining a straight standing posture in the air, but their consciousness had not yet recovered. "Two foreign lifeforms found, activate the defense system, and clear them immediately", the insanity of the markings carved on the walls flickered, and a cold synthesized sound resounded in the hall, a special language, not the lingua franca of the continent. The limbs of the two people under the light began to disintegrate and disappear little by little. "Terminate execution, find the inheritance mark", the characters on the wall flashed again, a mechanical voice sounded, and the human bodies of the two regrouped. "Scan the brain's linguistic neural information, capture the language of communication", "language conversion on", "action restriction on", "start to restore life function", the characters on the wall kept beating, and a mechanical sound sounded, "life function recovery", another mechanical sound, but this time the voice was the lingua franca of the Star Source Continent that could be understood.

As the cold voice fell, the two people floating in the air woke up leisurely. The scene in front of them made them all a little dazed, they were still in the desert before, but now they appeared in this machine technology hall, if it was a red pupil, it would be fine, after all, earthlings, such a thing has not been seen before, and Zirou is confused. The two of them were uncontrolled except for their heads, "Welcome to the brood, I'm the heart of the machine - Gaipo", an abrupt voice sounded, and both of them looked around in surprise, except for the grooves in the wall that shone with the sound, they didn't see even half of them. "What are you, why did you bring us here", Chisheng Hitomi asked, he wasn't sure if this guy was human, the heart of the machine, it sounded more like artificial intelligence, but this world was obviously a martial world, if there was such a highly developed mechanical civilization, then it would be meaningless for them to cultivate as spirits. "I'm the artificial intelligence you think, but it's not all it", the cold voice sounded again, it seemed to know exactly what Chisheng Hitomi was thinking, which made Chisheng Hitomi feel stunned, so that his secrets were not all exposed, he couldn't help frowning, and his expression was solemn. "I've scanned the basic information in your respective minds, so I can communicate with you in a common language, knowing that you don't know anything about my existence," said Gaipo's cold voice. "You mean that they have taken our memories", Zi Rou asked in a cold voice, her heart was full of anger, and her words were cold, anyone has something in the depths of their memories that they don't want to be known. "No, the brain of a living thing is a strange thing, especially the human brain, memory does not exist in theory, it must be produced by the action of countless tiny memory particles in the human brain to produce memories", explains Gaibo without emotion, and through scanning, he also knows the basic ways of communicating with people, including human feelings. "Since you know that we don't know anything about your existence, then you should introduce yourself first", Hitomi Akasheng also breathed a sigh of relief. "Introduce yourself", the characters on the wall flashed, and with the voice, I felt like a teenager who had nothing to do. "I was a mechanical brood created by the Spirit Race in the primeval period, and I was just a simple machine, doing things in a fixed way. Later, in the middle of the primeval period, the Hitomi clan came forward. Their appearance has caused the whole world to change, these changes are good and bad, and I have benefited from the benefits of this change to produce spiritual wisdom", the cold voice paused, and then continued: "I created my own people who produced spiritual intelligence, they are the only race that is not produced because of the mutation, except for the Hitomi race, every race in the world is slowly produced by the influence of the Hitomi clan over countless years. I split my core into two parts, creating two different mechanical races. One is called Haotian, and the other is called Mingyao. In the middle of the primeval period, countless races arose, in your words, a group of heroes competed for hegemony, they fought for survival and competition in this vast star source continent, and seized resources, at this time, the Haotian and Mingyao races have been neutral, only discovering their own civilization. In the late primeval period, the battle gradually ended, and countless defeated races were either exterminated or traveled far and wide through the ancient path of the stars. In the end, it was the two major races that dominated the continent, the Spirit Race and the Pupil Race, and the Pupil Race has always supported and supported my mechanical race, during this period, the civilization of the Mechanical Race developed rapidly, and at the same time, the contradiction between the Spirit Race and the Pupil Race became increasingly intensified. Finally, time came to antiquity, in the early antiquity, the war between the two races broke out, and the final result was that both sides were defeated, and the core bloodlines of the Hitomi clan all fell, leaving only some side branch races created by him; In the middle of the primeval period, I don't know if it was a curse or other reasons, a clansman with extremely pure blood finally appeared in the side branch of the Hitomi clan, but unfortunately died, and the Hitomi clan at that time gathered all the strength, and even gambled on the future of his entire race, and finally obtained a trace of pure blood from the dead clan. However, this bloodline did not prosper the Hitomi clan, but hundreds of millions of years later, the Hitomi clan declined and disappeared on the continent, it is said that the only thing left is that trace of blood, and the irony is that although this bloodline is extremely pure, and the people who inherit the bloodline are also geniuses, but as long as he marries someone, he must give birth to a son, and when his son is born ten years later, he will die. The Hitomi Clan, which once dominated one side of the continent for several periods, has gradually been forgotten by other races in the years of time, if it weren't for the special memory of my mechanical race, I'm afraid these things would have been remembered a long time ago", Gaibo's tone was a little regretful, I don't know if it was because of the emotional impact of scanning the brains of the two, or the sigh that witnessed all this but could not do anything.

Gai Bo paused for a long time, and Chisheng Hitomi was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect this continent to have such a history, no wonder there are so many ruins on the continent now, it seems that this continent is much more mysterious than imagined. After a long while, the characters on the wall began to beat again, and Gaipo's voice sounded again: "Late Taigu", his voice was a little emotional, " During this period, our race has developed and grown, although it cannot cultivate spiritual power, but with the countless resources of the Star Source Continent and the science and technology that our race has developed for several periods, our race has stood at the top of the racial civilization, and countless advanced scientific and technological weapons have come out one after another, and the people of the entire continent are united, and the speed of scientific and technological development is faster than that of our race in several periods, people are not limited to the pattern of the Star Source Continent, they each conquer the Star Domain, plunder resources, and at the same time accept the genius races from various Star Fields to enter the Star Source Continent, this period can be described as the most prosperous period in history"However, sometimes prosperity consumes more resources than war, because everyone is focused on scientific and technological development, so the resources of the entire continent are getting less and less. If it is a war, there will be dead and wounded, so that there will be resources to be plundered and released, but this is peace, everyone is doing the same thing in the era of peace, countless resources are directly put into use without anyone fighting for them, and in less than a period, the entire Star Source Continent can support the operation of advanced machinery with less and less energy, it is not the brutality of our race that has led to the decline of the mechanical race, on the contrary, the peace and prosperity have fallen to a race for a period of time", Gaibo let out a long sigh, with helplessness in his voice. "This is the so-called Hejiu must be divided," Hitomi Akasheng muttered to himself. "Eventually, the mechanical civilization also began to decline, and the two mechanical clans of Haotian and Mingyao also had contradictions. Mingyao insisted on continuing to develop science and technology to maintain this peaceful and prosperous era, while Haotian chose to remain neutral and ignore the world's disputes. Eventually, Haotian left the brood of the race, and from then on, the heart of the machine, that is, me, remained in the Mingyao branch. In the late period of antiquity, Ming Yao was finally powerless, because of the lack of resources, countless machines could not be operated, people began to return to the very beginning of life, they got rid of the machinery to survive on their own, they cultivated spiritual power again, nature dictated, and the struggle gradually began. And this strange continent has never treated its people badly for a moment, in this period, the concentration of spiritual power between heaven and earth can be described as unprecedentedly high, the scientific and technological civilization is declining, the whole world is prevalent in martial arts, and powerful spirits appear frequently, they are still using the ancient road of the starry sky opened up before to conquer the star field, but because of the decline of mechanical civilization, people have less and less understanding of the star source continent itself. Finally, in the early days of antiquity, the whole world was ruled by powerful spirits, and martial arts prevailed, and they believed in the law of the jungle, and everything was based on strength. The Haotian clan maintained their neutral attitude, even if they mastered the use of spiritual power to drive powerful machinery, they still maintained neutrality, and at the same time constantly changed the structure of the mechanical body, seeking to cultivate spiritual power like ordinary people. And the Mingyao clan also maintained their own position, they also used their spiritual power to drive the war machine, and wanted to return to that peaceful and prosperous era again, but how could they be allowed to develop steadily in the troubled times, and in the end, the Mingyao clan was still drowned in time. According to your brain information, this world is still full of spiritual power to this day, but the spiritual power between heaven and earth seems to be getting thinner and thinner, which is so similar to the primeval period, I am afraid that it will be the end of another period, I don't know which races and civilizations will be submerged", Gai Bo's words were finished, and the last sigh hovered in the hearts of the two people in the hall for a long time. This wonderful continent, if it really has intelligence, then what does it want? Also, what role does the earth you live play on?
